[2] The origin of the name Habsiguda may have originated from Habshi meaning African and guda a suffix for village; Habshi was a common term referring to the Siddi, Africans from Al-Habash (an Arabic term for Abbysinia or Ethiopia).

Habshi's (people from Abyssinia) lived for decades in and around this area hence the name "Habshi-guda" and now being called as Habsiguda.

Habsiguda remained as a hamlet under "Nacharam Village" until 1981 and later became an independent Grampanchayat under Uppal Kalan Municipality and now its part of Hyderabad Metropolitan City.

[citation needed] The Hyderabad Metro Rail has a route covering from Nagole to Raidurg which is laid via Habsiguda.

It has three Metro stops one at Cricket Stadium, second at National Geophysical Research Institute and other at Crossroads of Habsiguda.
